Starfield just got a DLC-sized expansion mod, allowing you to create whole colonies with giant mechs, defense turrets, a farming system and more (www.dsogaming.com)

DLC expansion mod

Redundancy is redundant because of the redundance.

Downloadable DLC Content Expansion Mod Add-ons

It makes sense to me. It's adding something to base game rather than verging off in its own direction.

Kind like Wasteland Contraptions versus Nuka World in Fallout 4.

Expansions used to come in disk form, you know. They're not exclusively downloadable. And mods aren't always expansions. Each word contributes something different, even if they have quite a bit of overlap and are often considered synonymous these days.

The thing that gets me is calling it DLC-sized. So... small? Large? Is it horse armor sized or Shadow of the Erdtree sized DLC? DLC is not a unit of measurement.

What freedom unit would you prefer?

Personally, I grasp things best when measured in units of Runebears.
